A visual overview of Sauce Labs

- [Instructor] This is just a simple graphicto help you understand the physical rolethat Saucelabs plays in your automated infrastructure.On the far left, the computer image representsmy local computer with Robot Framework installed.You can see that I can run my Robot Framework taskson that computer, and that computer still has accessto whatever database or API resourcesthat might be part of your application under test.All of the activity that runs on a web browser, however,would get routed over to the Saucelabs browser cloudand use selenium servers to run your teston a wide variety of OS browser combinations.

Down at the bottom there, you see that we can utilizean application that Saucelabs has createdcalled Sauce Connect that would allow you to testany web applications that you have behind a firewall.And you can also use multiple Jenkins slavesto increase your parallelism and get faster feedback.

The Robot Framework test automation framework was designed to help users automate software tests quickly and easily. By adding Sauce Labs to the mix, you can boost your productivity ever further by running your tests in parallel against many of the OS and browser configurations afforded by the Sauce Labs browser cloud. In this course, instructor Bryan Lamb shares what you need to know to get an existing Robot Framework Selenium script to run on the Sauce Labs browser cloud—and, in turn, avoid needing to spend undue time setting up and configuring multiple test machines. Learn how to create and run Sauce Lab scripts, leverage advanced triggering options, test apps behind a firewall, and more.
